Episode 209. Why Is Tennessee Filled With Ancient Egyptian Symbols? | Jessie Czebotar

Why is Tennessee filled with so many ancient Egyptian names, monuments, and symbols?

In this conversation, Jessie Czebotar and I examine Memphis’s connection to ancient Egypt and the meanings she sees within the Memphis city seal, the Tennessee state flag, the University of Memphis coat of arms, and the Catholic diocese’s symbolism. We also explore the Memphis Pyramid, Ramesses II, the Apis bull, Serapis, ancient Egyptian writings about death, and whether naming a city after an ancient location could carry spiritual or territorial significance.

On the Plus Side, we continue deeper into Tennessee by examining Dolly Parton, Dollywood, the Imagination Library, Oak Ridge, and the unusual questions surrounding Dolly’s death.
